About Kirsty
Kirsty Peart is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom who has five years of professional experience and holds BACP membership. She aims to make the first step into therapy easier by offering a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk about what matters to them.
Kirsty focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety and depression, and she also supports people facing trauma and abuse. She works with those dealing with relationship strain, grief, addictions and challenges linked to sexual orientation and gender identity.
Background and approach
Her way of working is straightforward and person-centred. Sessions start by listening to what the person wants to change or understand. From there she helps set clear, manageable goals and finds practical ways to reach them.
Kirsty uses a mix of approaches including client-centred listening and cognitive behavioural techniques. She may also draw on solution-focused ideas to highlight small steps that lead to change. Treatment plans are discussed and agreed with each person rather than assumed.
Sessions are offered in English and are available to international clients. Therapy can be delivered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging depending on what the person prefers and what fits their day. Kirsty works with a wide range of concerns, including sleep and eating issues, parenting stress, anger, self-esteem, career difficulties, ADHD and coping with life changes.
She aims to help people feel heard, start to untangle difficult feelings and take practical steps forward.

Online support
She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT offers practical tools for issues like anxiety, sleep problems and low mood, and these tools transfer well to online sessions through structured conversations and exercises.
Finding the right approach is something to work on together. The therapist will talk through goals, try methods that match those aims, and adjust the plan as needed. That collaborative process helps make sure the work fits the person's needs and preferences.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people see non-verbal cues while meeting from different locations. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a work break. Live chat and text-based messaging provide short, flexible check-ins or a way to reflect between sessions. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around everyday life.
